About Pai Illustrationsserie

Pai ist eine Serie von vier digitalen Illustrationen zum Thema Einsamkeit. Die Serie stellt Einsamkeit als endlose Schleife dar und zeigt das Gefühl als komplexen Zustand und nicht als einzelne Erfahrung. Linien, Farben und Formen dienen dazu, Isolation und den Wunsch nach Verbundenheit auszudrücken. Kräftige Farben und detailreiche figurative Elemente tragen die Narration. Die Illustrationen wurden auf einem Tablet mit einer Anwendung für digitale Malerei in einer Größe von 2048 mal 2048 Pixeln gezeichnet. Die Arbeit ist eine Reaktion auf die eingeschränkten persönlichen Kontakte während der Pandemie. Geplant sind Drucke für Galerien sowie digitale Versionen für Online-Ausstellungen.
